I've been going through stuff to downsize and simplify before I officially pack everything up and move. As I was going through notes and school work, I was hit with kind of a "duh" realization. I really don't want to be a speech therapist forever. As in, I could see myself doing this for just a few years then moving on to something else. I mean, there are certain things I really enjoy about speech pathology - mostly the kiddos. But at the same time, I really don't feel passionate or even that interested in so much of this field. And what struck me the most as this thought hit me is that I wasn't panicked feeling or sad about the thought of moving on to something else. I almost felt happy at the idea of doing something completely different. And really, if I had an idea of what that different was I would totally go do that right now. However, I'm pretty clueless. And I guess I did do all of this work (and go through so much torture) to be able to practice as an SLP. So yeah. I'll stick to it for a while until I'm inspired to move on to something else. Sounds like a plan.
